Chapter 35

Cassandra was completely speechless.

Is Rebecca taking advantage of the time Orlando isn’t around to provoke me?‘ she sneered in her thoughts.

Isn’t she acting ail gentle and refined? Why is she so different when Orlando isn’t home? Did she truly believe that I’ll indulge her? Cassandra exclaimed inwardly.

Cassandra then replied, “Are you saying that I’m the one to blame for his lateness in coming home, Rebecca Spencer? Why don’t you take a moment to reflect on yourself? Perhaps he just doesn’t want to see you. He used to be on time before you

moved in here.”

Of course, these were just words Cassandra used to retort against Rebecca.

Back then, Orlando had never been home on time either, while Cassandra wasn’t daring enough to meddle in his personal affairs.

As long as Orlando could get back home, she would already feel happy.

Now that she thought about it, she saw how easily he could satisfy her needs.

However, these easy pleasures were gradually ebbing away bit by bit now.

Upon finishing her words, Cassandra no longer paid any attention to Rebecca. She resumed her work, subtly dismissing her

presence.

After an uncertain amount of time, Rebecca suddenly sobbed, her expression filled with a sense of being wronged. “Cassandra, I’m sorry. It’s my fault to come and interrupt you and Landy. You’re right that I should leave. I’ll move out now,” Rebecca choked back as she spoke. Soon, the sobs broke into tears.

Bemused by what was happening, Cassandra pondered, “What’s wrong with

her?

“What are you both doing?” A deep voice from a man was then heard before Cassandra could figure out what was going on.

Instantly, Cassandra understood the situation.

Cassandra squinted, cast an indifferent glance at Orlando, and said nothing. Then, she lowered her head and continued to focus on her computer, busy with her work.

Rebecca immediately walked toward Orlando and muttered in a low voice, “I’m fine. What Cassandra said is right, and there’s nothing wrong with her driving me away. I should probably move out, Landy, since you two are still legally married, and I’m just an outsider.”
